Keep oil exploration out of Africa's oldest national park
Support Virunga by signing our petition –tell UK oil company Soco it's time to leave Africa's oldest national park.
Your support really matters. People-power works. Together we will draw the line.
Heard of Virunga? It's Africa's oldest national park, and a treasured World Heritage Site.
Rainforests, volcanoes, rare and beautiful wildlife - Virunga has it all. People who live and work there know it's a very special place.
But Virunga is at risk of becoming Africa's newest oil field. When we heard UK oil company Soco were exploring for oil inside Virunga, we had to draw the line. Some places are just too precious to exploit. Find out more about Virunga and the oil threat.
Please donate today to help protect one of the most incredible places in the world.
Virunga National Park is the size of a small country, straddling the equator in Democratic Republic of the Congo.
It's got more than its share of wonderful wildlife - not just huge numbers of unique birds, but African icons like lions, elephants, hippos, chimps and the remarkable okapi. And a quarter of the world's critically endangered mountain gorillas.
Soco's exploring for oil isn't the only threat to Virunga - civil unrest and wars have put pressure on local people, wildlife and resources on-and-off for years. But we believe oil exploration would bring a new and unacceptable level of risk for Virunga's environment and communities.
That's why we need to draw the line.
Some people say local communities in Virunga will benefit from oil exploitation. We think it's unlikely.
We've seen how oil development can have serious negative impacts on wildlife, habitats and people in many places. From road-building, pipeline-laying, and of course the potential oil spills and pollution of land and water. (Lake Edward, in Virunga's internationally important wetlands, is crucial for local livelihoods and food.)
We also know there are much safer, more sustainable, financially viable alternatives – including potentially lucrative eco-tourism and hydropower.
Please sign our petition today. By signing your name, you will be sending a message to Soco that it's time to leave Virunga National Park
Together we can draw the line and keep oil exploration out of Africa's oldest national park.
Your donation will help fund our campaign to protect Virunga, and support our work
on the ground helping mountain gorillas.

Smartphones need kill switches. It's a relatively easy solution to the pricey (and irritating) problem of smartphone theft.

The cooperative spirit! It makes so much sense!

Should schools ever restrain students?Thursday, May 21st, 2009
Congress is considering legislation to stop schools from using physical restraints on students. Advocates for the disabled say restraints result in injury, death and mental stress. They also oppose placing students in isolation, another control technique some schools use.
One of the leading advocates is Phyllis Musumeci, from Boynton Beach, who says that her son was restrained by Palm Beach County school staff 89 times in 14 months. She is founder of Families Against Restraint and Seclusion.
But some educators say that, when used appropriately, restraints are a valuable tool and that sometimes they are the only way to control students.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "Pascale Doney" is a new label from Domaine Matrot, named for Thierry Matrot's wife, Pascale. Thierry is the family winemaker, and his 2009 Santentots displays the best of what red Cote de Beaune and Premier Cru Volnay can offer: roses, black cherries, and currants on the nose, and all that plus..
Cellar/Tasting Notes
The 2011 Volnay is a wine of distinction, nobility, finesse and femininity. The aromas compromise a unique bouquet of red berries, violets and vanilla.
Cellar/Tasting Notes The elegant 2011 Pommard is a firm, full bodied red wine that is nevertheless exceptionally round and generous, with a soft, fruity depth of character and a bouquet suggestive of raspberries.
Cellar/Tasting Notes
A very unique wine as this Burgundy vineyard is owned and operated by an American family!!
Owner and winemaker, Christopher Newman uses 100% organic viticulture and cellar practices.
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Another striking wine, the 2010 Pinot Noir Isabelle bursts from the glass with serious depth. The aromas and flavors are a bit on the darker side of the spectrum in the 2010. Black cherries, licorice and sweet spices all blossom as this large-scaled, voluptuous wine opens up over time."
Cellar/Tasting Notes A dark garnet color. The nose unveils woody, fruity and spicy scents. Then comes a round, full attack on the palate with velvety, silky tannins and beautiful balance… finesse, charm and elegance.
Cellar/Tasting Notes The 2011 Pommard Monopoly Premier Cru Clos de la Commaraine is a rich wine, typical of Pommard: masculine, deep, very aromatic.
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Vivid red. Sexy red fruit and incense on the highly perfumed nose. Suave, sweet and penetrating, offering intense raspberry and rose pastille flavors brightened by juicy acidity. Finishes silky and pure, with impressive clarity and spicy persistence."
Cellar/Tasting Notes The 2011 Chambolle Musigny shows as a deeply coloured wine which develops red berries fruits - and undergrowth aromas when older. Though it is full bodied, this delicate wine has a silky finish.
The unique delicacy and amazing character of this wine is due to the soil of Chambolle Musigny, and..
Cellar/Tasting Notes The 2011 Vosne Romanée is a full bodied and well-balanced red wine. It has a strong violet and cherry nose. With its ruby colour, it is a mild and delicate wine.
It will pair perfect with roasts, game, red meat (in sauce) and most cheeses.

Hello. In the past 3 months, I had 3 clogs in the home sewer line. Had it snaked twice and jetted once. Long story short, a section of the 6" clay pipe was cracked and was replace with pvc. Once the broken line was replaced, I had the line video inspected. Found that there is a back pitch in the home sewer line as it gets close to the city sewer main. But the most disturbing was the amounts of fats or grease floating in the pipe. Attach is the pic from the video cam. i tried flushing it with the hot water in hopes that it would melt but that did not work. Is there any chemicals available or recommendations that would be able to dissolve the floating fats?
Thanks for the help.

I love geometric florals! Especially quatrefoils... That's my favorite pattern in the whole world.
There was a "Dear Genevive" on HGTV recently where she specified ECT's for a mudroom/rear entrance...
...it ended up with a rich, luxurious appearance!
my fav examples are at the Emery & Cie website & the 1930s malibu tile that are still in some homes.
I have just recieved my order of encaustic cement tiles from Mosaic USA for my remodeling project of my home and I am absolutly delighted! They are so beautiful and I know they will look amazing once installed. I am so pleased I found this cement tile company I will definatly tell all my contacts.
Dear Yoli:
I've been trying to contact and get information from Mosaic USA and I am making no progress. Could I ask who you spoke to there. There are no telephone numbers listed for their New Rochelle New York office but they seem to still have it listed on their website. I called their offices directly in Spain and the person there could only suggest I send an inquiry through their e-mail, which I did. No has responded. Did you make your transaction through the Unites States? Thanks for any info you can provide. Please e-mail me direct if you can. Thank you.
-J (firstname.lastname@example.com)
May I suggest SICIS? they are based in NYC but have resellers all over the US: www.sicis.com.
they have all types of mosaic, in glass, marble, metal, gres, and if you are interested in geometric floral patterns check out their Glass3, or Mediterranea Collection.
Does anyone know if encaustic cement is a bad choice for kitchen flooring? I know when I'm at convention centers (all concrete floors), my feet hurt after a while. I'd hate to put them in my kitchen and then realize it had the same result.

Hi Robert,
I checked on the miCoach website (support section) and you can download the user manua Hi Robert,
I checked on the miCoach website (support section) and you can download the user manual.
It says in there under Precautions:
"Individuals who have a pacemaker, defibrillator, or other implanted electronic
devices should not use the miCoach devices."
The warranty card goes further and states that if you decide to use it then before doing so:
"[...] it is recommended that you have an exercise test under your doctor's supervision to ensure the safety and reliability of the simultaneous use of your implanted device and this equipment. Use of this product is at your own risk."
I hope this gives you the info you need to make a decision.

3 Answers (Will this device continue to work if I lose all network connectivity? Examples, in a gym that does not have signal or WiFi or on a remote ride.)
Hi Fabert,
As far as I know Bluetooth connectivity has nothing to do with WiFi or cell signal. Th Hi Fabert,
As far as I know Bluetooth connectivity has nothing to do with WiFi or cell signal. The connection is between the two devices and will remain unless you turn the devices off or remove the connection.
The miCoach Mobile App only needs WiFi or cell data coverage for downloading the App, Login/Registering and Syncing the workouts to the miCoach website.
During the workout the App simply uses the settings which have been downloaded to the iPhone/iPod to make sure the workout data stays personalized for you.
If you are outside then the device uses GPS to record things like distance, pace and speed. GPS is also independent of WiFi and cell data coverage. The route will simply be calculated at the end once you have synced.
As with most smartphones the iPhone uses A-GPS so this means that if you have WiFi and data services turned off then the GPS data may suffer.
Hope this helps answer your questions.

- 26-Mar-2013
Hi Luciano,
Easiest answer to this is no - it most definitely can't be used for swimming.
The Hi Luciano,
Easiest answer to this is no - it most definitely can't be used for swimming.
The adidas miCoach website says: "The Heart Rate Monitor (HRM) is water resistant up to 1 m (or about 3 ft). However, the HRM will not work underwater, and it's advised that you don't immerse it in water."
With all devices that say 1m water resistant this basically means that they are splash proof.
Normally to swim with a product it should be at least 10m water resistant and some people even say 50m water resistant as it's not the depth but the water pressure that is important and if something is moving then the pressure is higher.
Hope this helps,

Besides the above fact - Bluetooth Smart works across a smaller range than previous versions of Bluetooth. This means that you would probably also have to take your iPhone 4S or 5 with you and wear it somewhere on your body while swimming and I definitely wouldn't recommend this.
In short I would say that as it is swimming is not an option.
Hope this helps.

The bed was so comfortable, the staff wonderful and the room fabulous. There were so many thoughtful items, such as a dark washcloth for me to remove my makeup (I hate leaving mascara on white washcloth, so this saved me the mess of cleaning it off with tissue!!)

Chic Report: This season, the designers outfitted their models (including '90s sub-super, Amy Wesson!) in knee-length dresses with noirish, Brothers Grimm fairy-tale details--think sculptural hats, bows at the waist, rich, woodsy tones, and metallics. "It's a story about 20 witches going down the runway," said Robert Tagliapietra, who enlisted The MisShapes and stylist Sally Lyndley to help execute the vision. From the front row, an ecstatic ALT raved that "this was the best collection of the boys' career."

Thirteen players from The Star's coverage area — two teams and four individuals — will be vying for state titles at the RTJ Trail facility.
Upstart White Plains will be chasing the Class 3A boys team title and perennial contender Alexandria will be chasing the Class 1A-5A girls team title on the Schoolmaster Course. Piedmont's Hunter Pike will be playing for the boys 3A individual title on the Schoolmaster Course, while Alexandria's county champion and substate winner Dalton Chandler, teammate Cole McNeal and Cleburne County's Hayden Crowe will be chasing the boys 4A individual crown on the Fighting Joe Course.
McNeal and Pike open the locals' play Monday on their respective courses at 7:45 a.m. Chandler and Crowe play together at 7:54. The White Plains boys tee off between 8:03 and 8:39 a.m., while the Alexandria girls go off between 1:27 and 1:54 p.m.
The White Plains players got to see their course for the first time Saturday and found it took every club in their bags.
"It's definitely a longer course (than they're used to), but I think we can play good here," coach Marcus Harrell said. "The short game will be very important."
Chandler goes into the event with an abundance of confidence. He won the county tournament in a playoff and won the substate with a 70. He's currently fourth on the Calhoun County Golf Tour in stroke average and tied for the lead in birdies.
"I feel good going into it," he said after a practice round Saturday. "I feel like my game is starting to get tuned in and like I'm as good as any other kid playing in this tournament. So, if I play the way I am capable of I should come back with a W."
Last year, playing as an individual at Grand National, Chandler was three shots off the lead after an opening-round 75. He finished tied for 12th.
• LET'S TRY AGAIN: Last weekend's torrential rains played havoc with the entire local golf schedule forcing many events to be rescheduled, but organizers quickly found make-up dates.
The Maj. Dwayne Williams Tournament has been rescheduled for June 8 at Anniston Country Club. The good news is the field has been reopened for players who might not have been able to play on the original date.
New players must pre-register for the event by calling Nancy Turner at 782-5404 or 453-8607 or electronically at firstname.lastname@example.com.
The weather also washed out the Lea Fite Memorial Four-Man Scramble benefitting the Steel Magnolias and breast cancer research. It now will be played Saturday at 1 p.m. To grab a last-minute spot call Jimmy Taylor at 463-7620.
• JUNIOR SLATE: The schedule for the inaugural season of the Future. Champions Junior Golf Tour season is set.
The seven-event series open to boys and girls 6 to 18 runs from June 10 through Aug. 5. Tour registration fee is $100 and each event is $25, to be contested in five age groups.
The schedule opens at The Lion June 10 and follows at Cider Ridge (June 17), Pine Hill (June 24), Twin Bridges (July 16), Oxmoor Valley (July 22), Silver Lakes (July 29) and Farm Links (Aug. 5).

Al Muskewitz covers golf for The Star. He can be reached at 256-235-3577.

My day job is in retails, so there is a lot of talk about holiday greetings this time of year. What exactly do we say to customers when they shop in our stores? The answer differs from company to company, but it is something I think about in my personal life, too.
Because we have friends and family that celebrate so many different holidays, we always send out very holiday-neutral cards in December. Each year, I browse the holiday selection at Shutterfly and I find more Holiday Cards than I could possibly imagine. Last year, I chose an autumn design and added photos of our boy playing in piles of leaves. But this year, I'm not sure. From religious, scripture-based cards to ones that just say "Happy EVERYTHING!", Shutterfly has something for every card-sender's style. Traditional, modern, funky – you name it, they've got it, and they add new ones each year.

Golf Range magazine named Sah-Hah-Lee Golf Course one of the Top Short Courses in America in 2007 and 2009. Four Yahoo Travelers give it an average of five stars and three TripAdvisors give it an average of four owl eyes:
The mission of Body and Brain Yoga—alongside its affiliate yoga centers—is to make yoga accessible to everyone, everywhere. To this end, each team of instructors modulate movements based on Korean sun do to match each students' needs. Classes emphasize aligning the body and mind equally through stretches, breathing exercises, and meditation, and each session is capped off by a 10-minute tea time, during which students and instructors can socialize or reenact Alice in Wonderland's interview with the Easter Bunny.
Old-growth douglas firs, wetlands, and 43 bunkers populate Stone Creek Golf Club's award-winning, par 72 layout designed by Peter Jacobsen and Jim Hardy. The 165-acre course's front nine holes are straighter laced, and the back nine's tree-lined fairways of fescue grass challenge swingers with elevation changes and distractingly beautiful views of Mount Hood, the same "Hood" made popular in mainstream rap music. Players can hone their aim at the hitting stations of extensive practice greens, which include a full swing area with target greens at a variety of distances, before returning to face hole nine's six sand traps.
After sending dozens of dimpled balls soaring through the air, golfers can pop in at the Stone Creek Deli for a hot dog and foamy swigs of beer. Links magazine named Stone Creek Golf Club a Top 10 Green Course for using pesticides sparingly and only irrigating stretches of grass currently in use, inviting ground-nesting birds to build their two-story colonial mansions in the fallow areas.
Course at a Glance
In 2003, after years spent headlining Portland ballets such as Don Quixote and The Nutcracker, Keith Walls moved to New York City. He continued balletic journey by training under renowned teachers from the Kirov and the Bolshoi, Russia's most renowned ballet companies besides the Funky Chicken Institute. Outside the studio, Keith flexed his dancing and acting muscles in musicals such as Grease and Once Upon a Mattress.
It's this well of experience that Keith draws from throughout his recreational and intensive classes at Abernethy Performing Arts Academy. Starting with creative-movement classes for youngsters, Keith instructs his students in the fundamentals of ballet and prepares them for its advanced techniques. In other beginner-oriented dance classes, he teaches the basic steps to styles such as jazz, hip-hop, Irish, and tap. Like his ballet classes, musical-theater courses run from beginner to advanced levels. Both give students opportunities to perform in productions such as an annual Halloween show and classical ballets.
As they enter the training circle at Curves, female guests come face-to-face with the smiles of other women. And just as points on a circle share a common distance from the circle's center, workout participants share the experiences of those nearby by trading stations throughout the 30-minute training session. One minute is spent on a piece of strength-training equipment built for feminine frames and designed to work two opposing muscle groups with a single movement. Exercisers then move on to a recovery station, where they run, jog, or dance to maintain heart rates and keep platforms in place during momentary losses of gravity.
Having reeled in 25 years of experience as a licensed fishing pro, Steve Roberts shares tricks of the trade during half-day and full-day fishing trips, welcoming avid anglers and beginners alike onto his fully equipped fishing vessels. Throughout the year, Steve and company track down seasonal targets. Winter trips focus on chinook, or winter steelhead, and autumn trips chase after coho salmon—a feisty fish notorious for fighting under water and starting bar brawls on land. No matter what the target, every trip with Steve includes all the necessary gear and an endless stream of expert advice.

ORLANDO, FLA. -- These reader questions were answered at the North American Veterinary Conference here Jan.14-18.
Q: Our cat, who's at least 12 years old, has always been traumatized during her yearly veterinary exams. On her most recent visit, the vet indicated the cat's heart was galloping, apparently because the visit was so stressful, and prescribed Atenolol. What can we do to make these trips less traumatic? Also, when we're away traveling, how should we arrange for our cat to get her medication? She won't take anything from anyone by us. -- M.A.N., Las Vegas, NV
Next, zip or snap the carrier shut with your cat inside, and carry her to another room. Don't allow her out if she meows; otherwise let her out immediately. Time the relocation to just before mealtime. The idea is for your cat to learn that good things happen after she's been in her carrier.
After another week or so, take your cat out to the car (inside the carrier). At first, go nowhere, except maybe down the driveway, then take your cat back in the house for a meal. If she meows or complains anywhere along the way, back up to the previous step. Eventually, a trip down the driveway will extend to around the block.
"This all sounds good, and often the behavior modification works," says feline veterinarian Dr. Elizabeth Hodgkins, director of veterinary services at Ceva Animal Health. "The reality is that some cats will always be unhappy away from home, and may do better with a veterinarian visiting the home."
Typically, a galloping heart is not a sign of stress at the veterinary clinic, but instead may indicate hyperthyroid disease or heart disease, and the cat may be hypertensive (have high blood pressure).
Hodgkins, author of "Your Cat: Simple New Secrets to a Longer, Stronger Life" (St. Martin's Press, New York, NY, 2007; $29.95), says "Your veterinarian can test for hyperthyroid disease, which could, in part, explain your cat's extreme anxiety. Depending on what your veterinarian heard (when listening to your cat's heart), a visit to a veterinary cardiologist may be a good idea, and perhaps an echocardiogram. Atenolol is a beta-blocker drug, and (is prescribed for a medical condition) not because a cat is extremely stressed."
Purchase an inexpensive pill gun from your vet's office. Practice using the device by filling it with tasty baby food or moist cat food (without a pill). After your cat has become accustomed to getting such amazing morsels from the pill gun, it should be easy to sneak in a small pill like Atenolol. Some medication can be compounded to taste like chicken or tuna. Other drugs may be given in a form that can even be rubbed on a cat's ear.
Q: I read in your column about J.C., from Oregon, whose dog was having breathing (problems), which sounds like what our dog used to experience. She'd been leash trained and always pulled. I began to think I was harming her and purchased a harness instead for our Beagle/Pekeapoo mix. Was I right, and could a harness be more useful? -- M.W., Canton, IL
A: "You're right that constant pulling on the leash can affect a dog's breathing, and even create pressure on the eyes (possibly leading to glaucoma)," says veterinary behaviorist Dr. Gary Landsberg, of Thornhill, Ontario, Canada. "A harness or head halter is definitely preferred." Many veterinarians also believe that "choke collars" can cause or contribute to collapsing tracheas later in life.
You could consult a dog trainer or certified dog behavior consultant on how to encourage your dog to walk on a loose leash. Clicker training can be a great tool for this. There are also some excellent video examples teaching techniques at www.abrionline.org.
Q: My 6-year-old male cat has a love/hate relationship with his tail. After he began mutilating his tail, the vet took off about two inches. The cat is also being treated for roundworms (though he's indoors only) and we put him on anti-anxiety medication and a product that's supposed to deter licking. Still he licks and bites at his tail. My veterinarian suggests amputating the entire tail. This cat gets along well with our dog, but is only tolerant of our other cat; they're not friendly to one another. I read that my cat's problem is called hyperesthesia syndrome. Any advice? -- P.S., Bartlett, IL
A: Dr. Martin Godbout, a veterinary behaviorist in Quebec City, Canada, offers some general advice, but please see a veterinary behaviorist.
"If you amputate the tail, I'm not of the belief that the cat will be any less anxious," Godbout says. "And following surgery, he may offer another abnormal behavior to replace the tail chasing and biting." Also, cats with amputated tails may have problems defecating. In fact, Godbout suggests this cat may be more anxious following surgery.
Hyperesthesia syndrome is a behavior disorder or neurological condition (or both). Cats with this problem may suddenly lash out at themselves or a nearby person and seem to have supersensitive skin. Their skin ripples, their eyes dilate, their tails twitch, and they may have muscle spasms. Godbout suggests videotaping some episodes with a camera or a smart phone. Keep in mind that the problem may be explained by an anal gland issue or muscular skeletal problem. Your cat may even be experiencing seizures.
Godbout says your veterinarian may want to consider a drug called Gabapentin, since it may lower anxiety and also addresses the associated neurologic pain. Getting a sound diagnosis is key. Find a veterinary behaviorist near you at www.dacvb.org.

I am Livs. I'm 14, from good ol' England, and I rather love Harry Potter. I started writing November 2005 thanks to Hattie, my absolute inspiration (check out her stories under 'hattiepotter' because they are the coolest) She rocks my socks and I love her very much.
I write James and Lily mainly because there is so much freedom there and I love the characters so much. Sirius is my all time favourite character from the Marauder era and Ron from the current...ness... I love Lily a lot though and Harry, of course. I also love Ron and Hermione more than you could imagine. Oh man, I love it all.
My main story goes right up to James and Lily's deaths and I think that I'm going to end up splitting it up into a trilogy. I love writing it and at the moment I'm about one third through the second part of the trilogy which is very cool.
I write other stuff too, mainly Harry and Ginny one-shots, but I only do that when I'm bored of my story or I'm out of inspiration. Or I just want to write some fluff. I'll try to get some of those thing up.
Anyway, yeah, just read my stuff and if you like it then tell me. Happy reading.

Neighborhoods: Cottonwood Heights
GOOD – I love this place and has one of the best pizzas in valley,go for it.At least that was like that in 08!!
A Yummy Place to get a Beer with Your Dinner! – It's a hard menu to choose from. For some reason nothing stands out because everything seems equally good.I usually end up getting the fish tacos and rock shrimp because they are both so delicious.
The prices are on the high-end while still being reasonable ($50-$70 for two), but you get what you pay for. They have excellent service and the staff has mostly been there long term and are very friendly. The atmosphere is really warm and inviting. Their bathrooms are always clean...bonus!
A loved local place in SLC!!!
My favorite restaurant – Great food, especially the pasta with sun-dried tomatoes and artichoke hearts. We have never had a bad meal there.
AWESOME food with a wide selection of options, great ambience with a cool "outdoorsy" patronage, and VERY reasonably priced – This is an AWESOME restaurant. It is always crowded, but there is usually not a very long wait for smaller groups. They serve large groups also, but if you have 6 or more in your party, I highly encourage a reservation. Porcupine is very reasonbly priced and the service is top-notch.
The food and beer selections are extensive and incredible. They have a variety of microbrews, national and international beer choices. My wife and I are vegetarians and the menu options have quite a variety for us as well. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, try the Red Pepper Hummus, Smothered Black Bean Burrito, and Portabello Jack...f'ing delicious!
It is located at the mouth of Big Cottonwood Canyon. In Winter, they get a lot of skiers, while in Summer they get a lot of bikers and climbers...so there is always a cool, outdoorsy crowd there.
The ambience is great, with an outdoor patio, on the inside they have a cool bar with a lot of varied paintings on the wall. They also have a good sized loft that can seat a number of people. They have a lot of T.V. screens throughout the restaurant, usually playing a football or basketball game, or SportsCenter.
STAY AWAY... ahh what the heck? Come on over! – Please stay away. This is one of my fave places and it's always crowded enough without you! :-) Did one of the reviewers say "overpriced"??? You've got to be kidding me!!
The Porcupine NEVER disappoints. I love the food. I love the atmosphere. I love the location. I love the service. This is one of the best places in Utah to get a great meal, at a great price and have a great time! Keep up the good work and I'll keep coming back for more!
Best place to chill with a little dinner after a great day of skiing – Yes you can go there with a large party. We go there 3 to 5 times a month with about 20 people at a time. Just like any restaurant you may have to wait a little longer. This place has the best sandwiches and salads not to mention the fabulous Beer. If you ski or snowboard this is the best place to stop after a long day on the hill.
Their problem? – I was actually considering going here for my birthday. Since reading the comment about not being good about large groups I've changed my mind. I'm sure the porcupine is a great place, however, I do think that it's just good customer service to cater to the customers even if it's a large group and split the bill. And I felt the need to comment after the ignorant comment about it being their problem? You seem a little bent about someone else's experience, are you working there or something? I've worked as a waitress, a server that can't split the bill is an inept one. Large groups are not just for Denny's and the problem was the restaurant.
ummm beer – This is one of my favorite places to eat, drink beer, and be social. The food is consistantly good, the service is always friendly and the atmosphere is fun. Even if you have to wait for a while to be seated, there is usually room at the bar to eat an appetizer if you're starving, get a drink, and you'll probably meet someone new. People go there all the time after a day skiing/snowboarding by themselves, so sit down and chill out for a bit. Whats better then great food, friendly service, fun atmosphere, and meeting a new friend??
So, to the person complaining about bringing 17 friends to a restaurant that you admittedly knew didn't take reservations....um, what aren't you understanding here? Let me help you out: simply, the problem was you.
to the person that brought 17 people to a busy restaraunt – If you're bringing 17 people to dinner and they don't take reservations- go to Denny's. Come on, be realistic. Also, take note....DON"'T BRING 17 PEOPLE TO DINNER AND SPLIT CHECKS.....THAT'S EVERY BIT RUDE. It's the equivalent then of being sat 8 tables at once. GET OVER YOURSELF.
Popular after skiing location – Wide menu variety and a good selection of local beers on tap. Breakfast menu is very good as well.

new 300 wby mag & z3 scope
I purchased a Weatherby MKV custom rifle at the DSC convention auction. The following day I purchased a LR 1000. The rifle is a 300 mag with french walnut stock and monte carlo style carving that is polished to a fine grit and finished in a hand-rubbed oil. The for-end tip and pistol grip cap are ebony, while the checkering pattern is cut into a fleur-de-lis design at 22 lines per inch. The matte black action is fitted with safari style sites and banded front swivel. The rifle is engraved in gold with the special DSC inscription. This rifle also has a Swarovski Z3 series 3.5-10 x 42 rifle scope mounted with Talley quick detachable mounts. This gun was customized by McClelland Gun Shop and valued at $10,000. I am asking $7,500.

Linux Foundation Hires Developer for Kernel.org
Linux kernel developer John "Warthog9" Hawley assumes the full time role of kernel.org web administrator for the Linux Foundation (LF).
As the Executive Director of the open source foundation, Jim Zemlin, reports in his blog, two industry names ("hint: they start with letters like I and G," presumably alluding to IBM and Google) have contributed to financing a new full time position at LF. Since 2005, John "Warthog9" Hawley has been one of five administrators of the kernel.org website and can now assume the role full time. Zemlin describes Hawley's previous projects as having worked on "system operations, the wikis, the kernel.org Gitweb, the GeoDNS patches to ISC's BIND name server and a number of other things for kernel.org." Hawley also participated in other Open Source projects, including Syslinux, OpenSSI and PXE Knife. He is even expert in non-computer roles: "In his free time he enjoys cooking extravagant meals and watching bad movies."
Zemlin considers Hawley's job as "essential" for disseminating the principles behind which the worldwide distributed development of the Linux kernel functions. He describes the website's role as "the actual physical space - in cyberspace - where kernel developers get their work done. Without it, nothing happens." Zemlin further describes why the availability of kernel.org is essential for the Linux distribution and, therefore, for the foundation: "It is the primary site for the Linux kernel source and git, the distributed revision control/software management project created by Linus Torvalds." While this undertaking would not necessarily guarantee the success of an organization, Zemlin considers it a core competence of the Linux Foundation. "We marshal the forces of our members - they would have a hard time hiring the person directly... The model works. "
